BLOG #1

     http://dallasks.blogspot.com/ 

     this is the very first blog i EVER visited, primarily because the author gave me her card.  I’ve been a part time camera salesman for just over a year now and just happen to be the person that sold her all of her gear (canon 20D) so.

I’ve been keeping track ever since.

BLOG #3

     http://www.penny-arcade.com/

     I don’t really thing this counts as a blog, and probably not even as new media, but it was probably the first web comic that really hit it big.

In reality it’s no more than a blog (newspost) attached to content.

Lots of Blogs from Laura C.

Posted by emac3326 on August 24, 2006

Laura Chambers 

Two blogs that I enjoy:

http://blog.scifi.com/stargate/

Stargate Sg-1 is one of my favorite television shows.  I’ve watched it since it first came on 10 years ago (I know, big geek, lol) and I enjoy reading the blog to keep up with different things behind the scenes.

http://icultimate.blogspot.com/

As earlier mentioned, I’m captain of the Ultimate Frisbee team here and a couple of other teams during the rest of the year.  I’ve been playing for 2 years, and I’m extremely interested in all aspects of the sport.  The blog version of IC Ultimate is a great way to follow the sport in the United States and around the world.

Other links of interest:

http://www.ultimateshowdown.org/

This one is hysterical.

www.nbc.com/nbc/Video/

I would link you directly to the movies, but, as we discussed in class, NBC  has taken action against any free entities posting the videos.  Take a look at “Lazy Sunday” and the Natalie Portman rap.  They’re great.

This is a favorite of my friends and I, especially when our friend Steve’s around.

This is a fun one too.

Personal Synopsis: Chambers

Posted by emac3326 on August 24, 2006

Laura Chambers

Hello there. My name is Laura Chambers. I am a history major with an interest in almost everything. My experience with computers is relatively exstensive as far as older medias go, and I am a huge fan of blogs, podcasts, etc., and I am looking forward to learning as much as I can in this class. I am a junior/senior with a full time job as a sales assistant at a wholesale jewelry company. As a small aside, some of my favorite things are sci-fi and anything comedic. I am also Captain of the Ultimate Frisbee team here at UTD. I think that’s enough about me for now. *:)

Personal Synopsis: Martin

Posted by emac3326 on August 24, 2006

Brandy Elaine Martin

My name is Brandy Martin I was in the Army for about a year, got
through boot camp and my job training and figured that it wasn’t for
me. I didn’t feel like I was at my full potential. So after getting out
I moved to Arlington, TX and attended UTA with a major in Architecture,
but that soon changed becuase Arch History didn’t like me. So I have
succeded in getting my Associates Degree in Arts and now am on to UTD
for a major in Art and Technology. Right now I am working for KIDKRAFT
full time this summer and then will be part time now that school is
back in. i love my job the people are great there. I do one of two
things, a computer aided-drafter or a pc tech.
my personal interests are computers, pretty much anything with
computers, my friends, and clubs well use to be alot.. but have settled
alot.. i dont really have alot of experience with new media except for
creating slide shows for my myspace page.. and i created a slide show
with music for a friends wedding
. im pretty techinically savy.. and if
it is something new.. well pretty much once i do it once i can succeed
at doing it again.. i believe i am a very fast learner, and love to
learn many new things.
